   The Grove is a beautiful place to eat at with exceptional food. Took my mother here for a late Mother's day brunch and she was very impressed. One of my favorite places in Tyler and highly recommend.

   The live music was great and the ambiance was wonderful. My steak was slightly overcooked but my husband's was perfect. The drinks were generous in pour. The service was lacking in timing and providing steak knives and drink refills. We will enjoy returning there. It was an appropriate suggestion for our 1st Anniversary celebration.

   Tough night on service. Drink orders slow. Ordered soup and didn’t bring spoon. Had to ask another waiter for one. My wife ordered steak and didn’t get steak knife. Had to eat half of meal with butter knife to cut steak. Never saw a manager to voice concerns. It will be a while before we return. Highlight of night was Darrin Morris playing in the bar.

   We chose the venue due to the scheduled live music patio experience and, of course knowing the food/drinks are good. Due to a small threat of rain the musician chose to perform indoors at the bar while the paying customers remained on the patio. It did not rain and our out-of-town guests did not get the experience we paid for.

   We have been to the Grove for functions but this is the first time to go just to eat. Menu is pricy, a little more than we would pay for the same type food elsewhere. This place is set up to cater, it seems, to the drinking crowd, which we are not part of. It was good, but for the money I would much rather go to FD's or some other same level restaurant that also gives a great value for their food.

   We went for Mother’s Day brunch and it was a great experience! Staff was super friendly and courteous. They were very attentive to refills and needs. The food was amazing. We loved the avocado toast and candied bacon! My mother ordered the turkey sliders which were flavorful with a little spice. I ordered the crab cakes, which were also good but didn’t pack a flavor punch like the sliders. It really is a beautiful restaurant and we were seated in a quiet secluded area. I would definitely be back to try other dishes!

   Everything was excellent. The noise level was higher than other times I have been there. But it was because of the rain and those outside had to come in and made many more people and children talking. The food was very good and the presentation was excellent. The service was excellent as well. Will definitely go again!

    Food and service was good. However, we were placed at a table that was known to have water from a/c condensation drop on it. I would rather eat at Chic fil a at a dry table than sit there again.

    Beautiful restaurant but hostess didn’t seem to be bothered or apologetic table was wet from AC dripping overhead us. I had to ask to have it cleaned up. We were a party of 5 for Mothers Day and waited a hour for our food. Great ambience but not sure if I will be back.

    Our party of five was seated at a large round table for six, but we ended up moving to a four top adding a chair because the a/c vent was not only dripping on our table but down a couple of our backs. This is unacceptable. Installation of some kind of drip tray up at the source would prevent drips on THREE tables that we saw. I understand the need for a/c in a large crowded restaurant, but I also can't imagine why this has not been taken care of, the three tables remained empty during our stay because of continuous dripping water. The food was not hot but tasty. The portion of the shrimp & grits dish, for the cost, was not a good value. I've paid less for more grits & more smaller shrimp at other places that was also better tasting.

    We made a reservation days in advance and then had to wait 20-30 minutes past our reservation, then waited 10 minutes for a waiter, food came late and some of it cold. Sent back one plate. Very disappointing because we have been before and it was great. More disappointing because we brought guest with us and had built it up before hand. Doubt we will return!!

    I have to say I was very disappointed in my food. Not cooked well. Not flavorful! Cost for what you get terrible. Not the cleanest. I could have gotten better food at fast food place and gotten a better tasting food and more. You expect better when you pay the amount we paid for what we got. Probably my last time to go to this restaurant.

    Only critique is sound level. Extremely loud. Sat in the inside atrium - sound just reverberates especially with a table of 2 adults and 2 unruly kids next to us.

    After arriving 10 minutes early, the hostess first tried to seat us next to a large noisy party of 15-20 people inside. We asked for a quieter seating & was told outside was only available seating. We took a table outside. Large weeding party on one side but it was quieter than the seating offered inside. Service was very good & food was even better. I don’t think we will return on a weekend; during the week; absolutely!

    With reservations, we had an outside table. The day was beautiful, the music lovely and brunch was amazingly delicious. The crab cakes were so good as was the brisket eggs Benedict. The server was so personable and she accommodated a special request for peach instead of orange juice for our mimosas… divine! Highly recommend The Grove!

    The Grove is one of my favorites. Service is impeccable. Food is divine. Atmosphere is gorgeous. This time, we had escargot and an order of Brussels sprouts to start. we also enjoyed Secret Garden cocktails - so yummy! Chicken Milanese never disappoints and the Harvest salad with added Salmon was excellent. The indoor patio was where we dined on this visit, but I also love to sit at the bar and nosh there on occasion. Go and Enjoy!

    Amazing venue and restaurant to spend a date night or hang out with family. Food was excellent. staff very helpful. Loved it all. Due to the bad weather, we couldn't sit outside, but we are looking forward to our next visit and hopefully be able to enjoy amazing outdoor area too.
